How much is fencing wire per metre?
The cost of fencing wire in Australia varies based on type and quality. Plain wire typically ranges from $0.50 to $1.50 per metre, while barbed wire can cost between $1.00 and $2.50 per metre. High-tensile or specialty wires may be priced higher. Bulk purchases often reduce the per-metre cost.
What wire is best for fencing?
The optimal wire for fencing depends on its intended use:
- Plain Wire: Suitable for general boundary fencing and livestock containment.
- Barbed Wire: Effective for deterring animals and enhancing security.
- High-Tensile Wire: Offers superior strength and durability, ideal for long fence lines and areas with high animal pressure. Selecting galvanised wire enhances rust resistance and longevity.
Is wire fencing cheaper than wood?
Yes, wire fencing is generally more cost-effective than wooden fencing. Materials like plain or barbed wire are less expensive, and installation is typically quicker and less labour-intensive. However, the choice between wire and wood should consider factors such as purpose, aesthetics, and maintenance requirements.
